Sunday Mornings (10 a.m. – 10:50 a.m.)

Adult

Rector’s Forum: Rector’s forum is the clergy-led class on Sundays. It is open to all age ranges and does not require outside reading. The class aims to delve into topics of the faith which strengthen and inspire us to follow Christ in a deeper way. Not simply didactic, the class invites members to ask questions and share thoughts. If you are a newcomer to the class, feel free to jump in. Topics have included theology, books of the Bible, Christian history, the Saints, missions and evangelism. Meets in Founders Hall

Life Together (20s-30s): This group of Epiphany singles and young families, meets weekly for study, discussion and prayer. Reading ahead is not required to be welcomed by this friendly group! The group also meets for fellowship throughout the year. Meeting Room 1 of Servants Hall. Contact: Temple Taylor, Newcomers

Seekers, Sinners and Saints: Open to all, Seekers is a self-led adult class where we rotate various books and topics that we choose together. Come, even if you haven’t read the material, haven’t come before or consistently, or aren’t sure you agree with everything. We seek to grow in our faith and community through study and rich discussion. Meeting Room 2 of Servants Hall. Contacts: Cara Brown and Becky Umstead

Children

Catechesis of the Good Shepherd: Rooted in the Bible, the liturgy of the church, and the educational principles of Maria Montessori. Children gather for scripture lesson and then have the opportunity to engage or “work” with the scripture directly through the use of manipulatives. PLC 6 – 3 yrs. through Kindergarten; PLC 5 – 1st through 3rd grade; PLC 8 – 4th through 6th grade. Contact: Sarah Jo Skinner, Catechesis Director

Children’s Chapel: Children’s Chapel during the 8:45 and 11 a.m. services is an opportunity for students to read and reflect on the scriptures of the day in a fun and kid-perfect way. Children exit the main church for chapel and return for Eucharist. Contact: Sarah Jo Skinner, Children’s Christian Ed.
